What Hasn't Tom Cruise Done in a Mission: Impossible Movie?

Tom Cruise does a bunch of crazy shit in Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation. This should not surprise anyone. If it's a Mission: Impossible movie, rest assured, Tom Cruise is going to do some crazy shit in it. The spy series is his personal, death-defying playground. He'd already climbed up the world's tallest building and thrown himself through explosions, but in Rogue Nation, Cruise has upped the ante yet again—dangling on the side of a cargo plane as it takes off, and (allegedly) holding his breath underwater for six minutes at a time.

But what about the next Mission: Impossible? What can Cruise do that's even more ludicrous than that? We have a few suggestions.

1. Skydive from the edge of the stratosphere.

Sure, the Red Bull guy did it. Tom Cruise isn't here to shill caffeinated sugar water, though. He wakes up every morning, every single morning at the crack of dawn, with a single cause coursing through his veins: He wants blow your mind with the most wicked, awesome, pants-soiling stunt you'll ever see in your sad little life. That's why, in Mission: Impossible - Jump! Jump!, Ethan Hunt dares to take on his hardest mission yet. To infiltrate the CIA's server farm without alerting authorities, he must freefall from 25 miles high, clip himself onto an autonomous quadcopter hovering above Langley, then BASE jump from that drone into an air shaft. Later, on the movie's press tour, Cruise will joke about how he blacked out three times during the shoot.

2. Swim in the Gowanus Canal.

Ethan Hunt uncovers a massive financial conspiracy, bankrolled by an insane Wall Street oligarch who's hellbent on sparking a worldwide economic collapse. (He's hoarding gold, or Bitcoin, or something. It's not important.) To stop him, I.M.F. must break into the ultra-secure headquarters of his Manhattan firm… but there's a catch. The only way to sneak in, unnoticed, is through a forgotten system of 19th-century plumbing tunnels that spill out into the Gowanus Canal. To prepare for the stunt, Cruise trains inside a dumpster filled with rancid garbage water for six months. Mission: Impossible - Super Fund makes $300 million on opening weekend.

After his TiVo accidentally records 96 hours of Turner Classic Movies, Tom Cruise demands that the next Mission: Impossible feature his craziest stunt yet: that thing a silent movie actor did 87 years ago.

The movie is never shown domestically—thanks to an aggressive series of lawsuits filed by Keaton family—but the legal controversy spreads through the gossip rags like wildfire, helping Mission: Impossible - Steamboat Bill Sr. become the most widely-torrented movie of the year.
